I deleted the HN cookies, then it allowed me in again.
Even after deleting all HN related cookies, it still doesn't work in Firefox (Iceweasel 17.0.1).
EDIT: it worked after I re-deleted all the cookies and re-force-reloaded the page.
I had to refresh the page after cleaning the cookies and before the login, too.
Ditto, on FF20, except I had to delete them twice.
This worked for me as well. I haven't had any trouble since (not even when using Firefox on a different machine).
Cleared cookies. Still can't login. FF 20.0.1 on Windows 7.
Works here too, thanks for the tip!
Clearing browser cookies in IE9 does not work for me. After login it just puts me back to home page and I still see the login link on the right.
Worked like a charm, thanks for the tip!
